After Season On Practice Squad, Robert Davis Is Ready To Step Up

First-year wide receiver Robert Davis spent the majority of his rookie season on the practice squad honing his skills, but now he's ready to make a difference on the active roster.

Lost in the shuffle of the Washington Redskins’ changes this offseason through free agent additions and the 2018 NFL Draft is the potential for one of the team’s 2017 draft picks to take a step up this year.

Last April, the Redskins used a sixth-round pick to select Georgia State wide receiver Robert Davis. Davis, 23, entered the NFL on the heels of a college career in which he finished as the program’s all-time leader in receptions and receiving yards.
